Patient and Provider Perspectives of a Web-Based Intervention to Support Symptom Management After Radioactive Iodine Treatment for Differentiated Thyroid Cancer: Qualitative Study

Results suggest education and symptom management videos can empower patients with DTC to self-manage mild to moderate RAI symptoms on a web-based platform. Findings emphasized the need for additional information for patients related to ongoing care following RAI treatment including social support and thyroid cancer surveillance. The findings provide insights for theoretically informed interventions and recommendations for refinements in thyroid cancer survivorship from patient and provider perspectives.
